Fawlty Towers Live

Overview

Think you know all there is to know about TV comedy? If you haven't watched and rewatched the hotel-based classic that is Fawlty Towers, think again. And if you have, you know you're thinking about doing so one more time while you're reading this — or, you could see the show come to life.

At Fawlty Towers Live, the hit series written by John Cleese and Connie Booth graces the stage as part of its first tour of Australia. And if you're worried that adaptations are never as good as the real thing, don't worry — Cleese himself was involved, although you won't see him pretending he's running a fictional seaside establishment, sadly.

What you will see is hilarious antics, beloved characters and a stellar cast of local talent. And, if that doesn't immediately inspire you to check in with this theatre version of one of the best television comedies ever made, nothing will.
